Chapter 280: Cannes is a busy man

After Zhang Yuanjun finished "Lonely Agent", he went straight to the crew of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic".

In "Lonely Agent", he has short hair, and in "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", he has to comb his back with a hair cover.

But after only 4 days of filming, he had to leave the group again.

The annual Cannes International Film Festival is about to open, and the 24-year-old Zhang Yuanjun will attack the highest honor of world art film for the second time.

Liu Yifei played a female announcer in "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China", just one scene and one paragraph, and she returned to the capital after filming in half a day.

At the same time that Zhang Yuanjun flew from Jinling to France, her best friend Shu Chang came to her with remorse to complain.

"I wanted you to take it." Liu Yifei didn't persuade Shu Chang to take over "Detachment", "It's just a technical girl, at most she will appear in underwear, what are you afraid of." ”

"Then why don't you take it?" Shu Chang asked her rhetorically.

"People didn't look for me." Liu Yifei said with a smile.

"I guess you won't pick it up if I look for you." Shu Chang smiled.

This can't be said to be wrong, although Liu Yifei has no idol baggage, she is unwilling to ask her to take off her clothes in front of the camera.

Shu Chang hugged Liu Yifei: "Qianqian, you help me beg Zhang Yuanjun, and if you look for me in the future, I will definitely not push it." ”

Liu Yifei said: "It's not that you don't know him, if you want to say it yourself, you want me to change your hand." ”

"Aren't you two on good terms, and you're classmates, you go and say that he will definitely give face."

Liu Yifei didn't take this stubble: "People pull the crew to film, and the real money is taken out, and I will listen to what I say?" Oh, don't worry too much about it, it's normal to take this one or not that one, the crew chooses the actors, and the actors are also choosing the crew. ”

"But I want to go to Cannes too." Shu Chang said.

"Let's look for another opportunity later." Liu Yifei said with relief.

"Hey, do you think Zhang Yuanjun can win the award this year?" Shu Chang asked.

Liu Yifei didn't answer, but looked at her meaningfully, staring at Shu Chang's hair: "I'll just say that, he is only 24 years old, and he is indeed a little younger." ”

No one believed he would win the prize this year.

At present, there are only two Cannes actors in the Chinese film industry, Ge You was 37 years old when he won the award, and Liang Chaowei was 38 years old when he won the award.

Even if Zhang Yuanjun won the award 10 years later, he was only 34 years old, and he was also the youngest actor.

Liu Le Youmi was 14 years old and became emperor, and there will be no one after the ancients, so he does not have any reference value.

When Zhang Yuanjun arrived in Cannes, it was already night.

But when Zhang Yuanjun walked out of the station, he was still questioned by many reporters at home and abroad.

Zhang Yuanjun greeted the camera as he walked, and when he entered Cannes, he was about to start acting.

"Well, I'm still filming in China, and I'm two days late." Zhang Yuanjun responded to a question from the movie channel.

"It's easy, it's about participation." Zhang Yuanjun pushed his luggage cart and walked out.

Zhang Yuanjun checked in to the hotel and reported to his parents and girlfriend that he was safe.

Zhang Yuanjun couldn't sleep for the time being, and after Xiao Zhao packed his luggage, he came over to follow him on the trip.

The two talked until more than 3 o'clock before parting.

Zhang Yuanjun slept until 11 o'clock before getting up, and under the urging of Xiao Zhao, he packed up and went out.

He has a movie channel to do a preview of the festival.

"It's the second time I've been to Cannes." Zhang Yuanjun took the microphone and chatted with reporters, "What time is it today?" I can't remember the time of the show. ”

The reporter told him: "On May 13, French time, the evening film festival opens. ”

"Oh."

"The first time I came was in '07, and now two years have passed, do you think there's anything different?"

"Isn't it still the same in Cannes, nothing has changed."

"What about you personally?"

"It's okay, the mind is more relaxed."

"Don't have an idea for an award?"

"I want to say that no one believes in any idea, since I came to Cannes, I definitely want to win the award." Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile.

"The four major students are being evaluated on the domestic Internet, and now you have the highest votes and voices, what do you think of this selection?"

"This is also a kind of recognition from the judges, but there is no need to take it seriously, just act well."

Because of the warning of Zhang Yuanjun's team, the selection results of the four major students and four small flowers should have been announced on the 27th of last month, but they were forcibly extended.

Penguin's decision was to wait until the Cannes Film Festival was over to announce the results.

"You just finished filming Lone Agent, right?"

"Well, I filmed on Hong Kong Island for 2 months, and I was still filming "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" in Jinling before coming to Cannes."

Zhang Yuanjun and the reporter asked and answered, from the popular chat of this year's film festival to the domestic film industry, and it took more than an hour to finish.

Zhang Yuanjun's lunch was also not idle, so Zhang Ziyi invited him.

When she came to the agreed restaurant, Zhang Ziyi was already sitting and waiting.

"Excuse me, we talked a little longer."

"It's okay, I've just arrived." Zhang Ziyi smiled, "It's really hard for you to invite, busy man." ”

"Busy." Zhang Yuanjun sat down.

Zhang Ziyi is a judge in this year's short film section.

"You have the task of judging and have time to invite me to dinner."

"The film festival hasn't opened yet, so let's take a break. Watching 24 short films in 4 days, and doing judging, I was going crazy just thinking about it. ”

The two chatted while eating, and while Zhang Ziyi looked at Zhang Yuanjun, he also had his own thoughts in his heart.

The speed of this person's rise is staggering, he acted in a drama for 10 years before he dared to try to be a producer, and he dared to spend money to make "Rise to Fame" after graduation.

It's really smashed out for him.

The commercial value is the first in the same generation, and at the age of 24 this year, it is the second time that he has been shortlisted for Cannes, and his art has also gained weight.

There is also a small studio in the United States, which is not large, but the films it makes are also profitable.

This kind of person, as long as he is not blind, will choose to make friends.

"I'm going to make a film in the summer vacation, and you'll come when the time comes."

"Okay," Zhang Yuanjun agreed first, "when?" ”

"Premiere on August 9th, release on the 13th."

When Zhang Yuanjun heard this time, he smiled: "It's okay at other times, but it's not good on the 9th." ”

"What are you busy with?"

"On the 7th, my "Source Code" was released." Zhang Yuanjun said.

"What a coincidence." Zhang Ziyi doesn't feel that she can't win "Source Code", the international chapter is the first producer, gathering Fan Bingbing, He Rundong, Su Zhixie, Lin Xinru, this kind of lineup gives Zhang Ziyi great confidence.

Zhang Ziyi said quietly: "I can actually act in "Source Code" last year. ”

Sino-US co-production is a big pie, and she also wanted to eat it last year.

Zhang Yuanjun smiled: "This role must use an actor from Orange Sky, and they are the producers." ”

"I know the way here." That's what Zhang Ziyi said.

But in fact, without an orange sky actor, Zhang Yuanjun would not consider Zhang Ziyi.

Zhang Ziyi's position is very awkward now.

The name of the international chapter is like thunder, but she has the so-called B grid, but the results of commercial films are a mess, but the international positioning makes her high.

This makes her a very cost-effective actress, and the audience knows her, but will not buy tickets for her.

Of course, she realized her embarrassing situation, otherwise she wouldn't want to be a producer and organize a game by herself.

When the two separated, Zhang Ziyi joked: "If there are any good characters thinking about my sister in the future, I will give you a discount." ”

Zhang Yuanjun nodded and said next time.
